2Q22: Alcoa Posts Strong Financial Results, Provides Returns to Stockholders

Alcoa Corporation (NYSE: AA) today reported second quarter 2022 financial results that included an 11 percent sequential increase in revenue and strong cash flow that enabled stock buybacks and the payment of cash dividends.

Second Quarter Highlights

  • Revenue increased sequentially to $3.6 billion, primarily due to improved shipments and higher pricing
  • Net income increased sequentially to $549 million, or $2.95 per share
  • Adjusted net income of $496 million, or $2.67 per share
  • Adjusted EBITDA excluding special items of $913 million
  • Cash balance of $1.6 billion at quarter end
  • Strong cash flows; increased capital returns with $275 million of common stock repurchased and $19 million in cash dividends
  • Improved the Company’s revolving credit facility with terms that provide more flexibility to execute on Alcoa’s strategies

“We had a strong first half of 2022 with nearly $2 billion in Adjusted EBITDA and cash flows that have enabled more buybacks under our existing stock repurchase program as well as continued quarterly dividend payments,” said Alcoa President and CEO Roy Harvey. “We have returned more than $380 million so far this year to our investors, and today we announced an additional $500 million authorization for future stock repurchases.

“As we progress into the remainder of this volatile year, we remain focused on our strategic priorities and our vision to reinvent the aluminum industry for a sustainable future,” Harvey said.

Second Quarter 2022 Results

  • Revenue: On a sequential basis, the Company’s total third-party revenue increased 11 percent, driven primarily by improved shipments in Alumina and Aluminum. In Alumina, third-party revenue increased 26 percent sequentially with the average realized alumina price improving 18 percent to $442 per metric ton. In the Aluminum segment, revenue increased 6 percent with higher shipments and regional premiums. The Company’s average realized third-party price per metric ton of aluminum was $3,864 in the second quarter.



  • Shipments: Outbound transportation logistics improved in the second quarter with greater availability of railcars and vessels, positively influencing Alumina and Aluminum. In Alumina, third-party shipments increased 7 percent sequentially. In Aluminum, shipments of commodity grade aluminum were up 9 percent sequentially, and value add products increased 3 percent.



  • Production: In the second quarter, Alumina produced 3.23 million metric tons, and Aluminum produced 499,000 metric tons, largely consistent with the first quarter output.



  • Net income attributable to Alcoa Corporation improved to $549 million, or $2.95 per share, from the first quarter’s net income of $469 million, or $2.49 per share. The second quarter GAAP net income in comparison to first quarter includes several notable items:
    • Reversal of valuation allowances on Brazil value added taxes (VAT) recorded as $83 million in restructuring and other charges and $46 million in cost of goods sold. With the restart of the Alumar smelter in Brazil and its first metal sales in June 2022, the Company regained the ability to monetize state VAT credits that were fully reserved in 2018 and will be recovered in coming years with future domestic metal sales.
    • Absence of first quarter restructuring charges of $125 million.
    • Mark-to-market gains of $106 million related to energy contracts.
    • Charge of $39 million to cost of goods sold for estimates of expected work on impoundments in Brazil.
    • Higher tax and noncontrolling interest impacts on above items of $115 million.

  • Adjusted net income was $496 million, or $2.67 per share, excluding the impact from net special items of $53 million of income. Notable special items include restructuring and other reversals of $75 million net, primarily related to the Brazil VAT item discussed above, a net favorable change of $106 million in mark-to-market energy derivative instruments, costs of $25 million related to the restart process at the Alumar smelter in Brazil and of modest capacity at the Portland Aluminium smelter in Australia, and tax and noncontrolling interest impacts on above items of $98 million.



  • Adjusted EBITDA excluding special items decreased 15 percent sequentially to $913 million, primarily on lower metal prices late in the second quarter and higher costs for raw materials, energy, and production.



  • Cash: Alcoa ended the quarter with cash on hand of $1.6 billion. Cash provided from operations was $536 million. Cash used for financing activities was $349 million, primarily related to $275 million in share repurchases, $19 million in cash dividends on common stock, and $46 million in net distributions to noncontrolling interest. Cash used for investing activities was $93 million, which includes $107 million of capital expenditures and $10 million of proceeds from the April 30, 2022 sale of Alcoa’s entire ownership interest in the Mineração Rio do Norte (MRN) bauxite mine.



  • Working capital: The Company reported 43 days working capital, a sequential improvement of six days. Inventory days improved by four days with higher shipments in the second quarter. The decrease in accounts receivable of three days reflects the lower metal pricing late in the quarter. The accounts payable balance increased sequentially but reduced on a days basis by one day with higher sales in the second quarter.

Strategic actions:

  • Returns to stockholders: In the first half of 2022, the Company returned $387 million of capital to stockholders through $37 million in cash dividends and $350 million in share repurchases. In July 2022, the Company announced an additional $500 million share repurchase program; $150 million remained available for share repurchases at the end of the second quarter from a prior authorization.



  • Revolving credit facility: On June 29, the Company announced that it successfully amended and restated its revolving credit facility (the "Facility") from $1.5 billion to $1.25 billion and extended the maturity date from November 2023 to June 2027. The Facility, which has not been drawn, includes terms that provide improved flexibility to execute on Alcoa's long-term strategies. Among other improvements, the Facility removes prior restrictions on both share repurchases and the payment of dividends. It released the prior collateral package, based on the Company maintaining specific credit ratings. Reaffirming the Company's commitment to its strategic priority to Advance Sustainably, the Facility now includes metrics on greenhouse gas intensity in the Alumina and Aluminum segments and the percentage of renewable energy consumption for smelters in the Aluminum segment.



  • San Ciprián alumina refinery: In July, the refinery reduced its daily production rate to help offset some of the financial impact from rising natural gas prices in Spain. The refinery has experienced a significant increase in natural gas costs, climbing from approximately $45 per ton of alumina produced in early 2021 to more than $215 per ton in the second quarter 2022. The refinery, which has an annual capacity of 1.5 million metric tons per year, has reduced up to 15 percent of its capacity, moving to average production of approximately 4,000 metric tons per day.



  • Aluminum updates: On July 1, the Company announced that one of its three operating potlines at the Warrick smelter in Indiana was curtailed due to operational challenges, which stem from workforce shortages in the region.



    Separately, the planned restart of the full smelting capacity at the Alumar smelter in São Luís, Brazil is now scheduled to be complete in the first quarter of 2023. The smelter is owned by Alcoa and South32 Limited. Alcoa owns 268,000 metric tons of the site’s 447,000 metric tons of capacity, and the Company announced in September 2021 that it would restart its share of the capacity.



    The Company announced in June that it has started a project to increase the Mosjoen, Norway site’s nameplate capacity by 14,000 metric tons per year (mtpy). The work on improved electrical infrastructure, which will boost efficiency and output, is expected to increase the Norway site’s capacity to 214,000 mtpy by the end of 2026.



    Alcoa announced in July that its Deschambault smelter in Quebec, Canada will be adding additional casting capability to produce standard ingots, supplementing the site’s larger T-bar ingots. It is being developed to support customer needs for foundry alloys, which are used in a variety of automotive applications.

2022 Outlook

The Company expects total Aluminum segment shipments to remain unchanged from the prior forecast, ranging between 2.5 and 2.6 million metric tons in 2022.

In Alumina, the Company has decreased its 2022 projection for shipments to range between 13.6 and 13.8 million metric tons, a reduction of 0.6 million metric tons from the prior forecast primarily due to the lower shipments in the first half of 2022.

In Bauxite, the Company has decreased its 2022 projection for annual bauxite shipments to range between 44.0 and 45.0 million dry metric tons, a change of 2 million dry metric tons from the prior projection due to continuing disruptions in the Atlantic bauxite market and lower demand from refineries in the first half of 2022.

For the third quarter of 2022, Alcoa expects higher sequential profitability in the Bauxite segment with increased shipments, as refinery demand improves in the third quarter. In Alumina and Aluminum, shipments are expected to increase but will not fully offset higher costs for energy and raw materials.

The Company anticipates an approximately $20 million negative impact to net income in the third quarter as a result of the Warrick line curtailment. The decrease in production volume at the San Ciprián refinery reduces the impact of the continuing rise in natural gas prices but is not expected to improve net income significantly on a sequential basis.

Based on current alumina and aluminum market conditions, the Company expects third quarter tax expense to approximate $100 million to $110 million, which may vary with market conditions and jurisdictional profitability.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

Some of the information included in this release is derived from Alcoa Corporation’s consolidated financial information but is not presented in Alcoa Corporation’s financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (GAAP). Certain of these data are considered “non-GAAP financial measures” under SEC regulations. Alcoa Corporation believes that the presentation of non-GAAP financial measures is useful to investors because such measures provide both additional information about the operating performance of Alcoa Corporation and insight on the ability of Alcoa Corporation to meet its financial obligations by adjusting the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure for the impact of, among others, “special items” as defined by the Company, non-cash items in nature, and/or nonoperating expense or income items. The presentation of non-GAAP financial measures is not intended to be a substitute for, and should not be considered in isolation from, the financial measures reported in accordance with GAAP. Reconciliations to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures and management’s rationale for the use of the non-GAAP financial measures can be found in the schedules to this release.

The difference between segment totals and consolidated amounts is in Corporate.

 

(1)

The production amounts can vary from total shipments due primarily to differences between the equity allocation of production and off-take agreements with the respective equity investment.

 

 

(2)

Alcoa Corporation’s definition of Adjusted EBITDA (Earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization) is net margin plus an add-back for depreciation, depletion, and amortization. Net margin is equivalent to Sales minus the following items: Cost of goods sold; Selling, general administrative, and other expenses; Research and development expenses; and Provision for depreciation, depletion, and amortization. The Adjusted EBITDA presented may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies.

 

 

(3)

Until the sale of the Warrick Rolling Mill on March 31, 2021, the Aluminum segment’s third-party aluminum shipments were composed of both primary aluminum and flat-rolled aluminum. Beginning April 1, 2021, the segment’s third-party aluminum shipments include only primary aluminum.

 

 

(4)

Transformation includes, among other items, the Adjusted EBITDA of previously closed operations.

 

 

(5)

Corporate expenses are composed of general administrative and other expenses of operating the corporate headquarters and other global administrative facilities, as well as research and development expenses of the corporate technical center.

 

 

(6)

Other includes certain items that impact Alcoa Corporation’s Statement of Consolidated Operations that are not included in the Adjusted EBITDA of the reportable segments.

Net income attributable to Alcoa Corporation – as adjusted is a non-GAAP financial measure. Management believes this measure is meaningful to investors because management reviews the operating results of Alcoa Corporation excluding the impacts of restructuring and other charges, various tax items, and other special items (collectively, “special items”). There can be no assurances that additional special items will not occur in future periods. To compensate for this limitation, management believes it is appropriate to consider both Net income attributable to Alcoa Corporation determined under GAAP as well as Net income attributable to Alcoa Corporation – as adjusted.

 

(1)

Other special items include the following:

 

  • for the quarter ended June 30, 2022, a net favorable change in mark-to-market energy derivative instruments ($106), costs related to the restart process at the Alumar, Brazil smelter ($22), an adjustment to the gain on sale of the Warrick Rolling Mill in Evansville, Indiana for additional site separation costs ($5), and costs related to the restart process of the Portland, Australia smelter ($3);

 

  • for the quarter ended March 31, 2022, a net favorable change in mark-to-market energy derivative instruments ($15), costs related to the restart process at the Alumar, Brazil smelter ($12), and charges for other special items ($1); and,

 

  • for the quarter ended June 30, 2021, gains on asset sales ($96), primarily related to the former Eastalco site sale, a charge for debt redemption expenses ($32), and a net benefit from other special items ($1).

(2)

Discrete tax items are generally unusual or infrequently occurring items, changes in law, items associated with uncertain tax positions, or the effect of measurement-period adjustments and include the following:

 

  • for the quarter ended March 31, 2022, net charge for discrete tax items ($2).

(3)

The tax impact on special items is based on the applicable statutory rates in the jurisdictions where the special items occurred. The noncontrolling interest impact on special items represents Alcoa’s partner’s share of certain special items.

Alcoa’s Corporation’s definition of Adjusted EBITDA (Earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization) is net margin plus an add-back for depreciation, depletion, and amortization. Net margin is equivalent to Sales minus the following items: Cost of goods sold; Selling, general administrative, and other expenses; Research and development expenses; and Provision for depreciation, depletion, and amortization. Adjusted EBITDA is a non-GAAP financial measure. Management believes this measure is meaningful to investors because Adjusted EBITDA provides additional information with respect to Alcoa Corporation’s operating performance and the Company’s ability to meet its financial obligations. The Adjusted EBITDA presented may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies.

 

(1)

Special items include the following (see reconciliation of Adjusted Income above for additional information):

  • for the quarter ended June 30, 2022, costs related to the restart process at the Alumar, Brazil smelter ($22) and costs related to the restart process of the Portland, Australia smelter ($3). Additionally, due to unprecedented price increases in the Australian power market, the mark-to-market contracts associated with the Portland smelter have generated gains ($70) in Other income, net which economically offset a portion of the cost of power recorded in Cost of goods sold. This non-GAAP reclass presents the net cost of power within Cost of goods sold;
  • for the quarter ended March 31, 2022, costs related to the restart process at the Alumar, Brazil smelter ($12), and charges for other special items ($1); and,
  • for the quarter ended June 30, 2021, external costs related to portfolio actions ($1).

Free Cash Flow is a non-GAAP financial measure. Management believes this measure is meaningful to investors because management reviews cash flows generated from operations after taking into consideration capital expenditures, which are both necessary to maintain and expand Alcoa Corporation’s asset base and expected to generate future cash flows from operations. It is important to note that Free Cash Flow does not represent the residual cash flow available for discretionary expenditures since other non-discretionary expenditures, such as mandatory debt service requirements, are not deducted from the measure.

 

(1)

Cash provided from (used for) operations for the quarter ended June 30, 2021 includes a $500 cash outflow for unscheduled contributions to certain U.S. defined benefit pension plans. The $500 was funded with the net proceeds of 4.125% senior notes due 2029, together with cash on hand.

Adjusted net debt and proportional adjusted net debt are also non-GAAP financial measures. Management believes that these additional measures are meaningful to investors because management also assesses Alcoa Corporation’s leverage position after considering available cash that could be used to repay outstanding debt and net pension/OPEB liability, net of the portion of those items attributable to noncontrolling interest (NCI).
